“The Great State of Canada is stunned as the Finance Minister resigns, or was fired, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau,”
“Her behavior was totally toxic, and not at all conducive to making deals which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada,” Trump continued, ending his post with: “She will not be missed!!!”
😒
Stop promoting any shit this Nazi says.
I’m sorry to inform you that you will be hearing every word that comes out of his mouth for at least another four years. You might want to disconnect if it really bothers you.
Gods, I’d love to disconnect. Not really feasible.
But the head Nazi says stupid shit on social media with the sole purpose of pissing people off. Canadian news media righteously repeat it ad nauseam. Then more social media (Lemmy) righteously links to the news sites, vastly expanding his original reach.
The media needs to take a principled stance and calmly call out his bullshit as bullshit - and we have a responsibility to not amplify it.
Actual matters of state - report on that all you want, as much of a shitshow as it’s going to be; but the only way to address his infantile rants is to treat him like an infant.
I bet he never heard the name before and still has no idea what she was doing. He’s just trying to start a bandwagon and doesn’t seem to realize how much this makes almost everyone in Canada want to slap him on sight.

Unless he forgot, Trump is well aware of her.
She was one of the lead Canadian negotiators during the re-negotian of NAFTA (a process Trump triggered because he pretended he could negotiate a better deal). She was tough and capable, and Trump hated that.
Also, she is very strong on supporting Ukraine against Russia, so Putin also dislikes her to the point of adding her to the list of individuals banned from Russian territory.

More then that. She employed guile and cunning to both push for our desired position and delay our southern neighbours to the point where they didn’t get a chance to plead their case in the negotiations. In short, she owned the USA in the negotiations for the USMCA. If Trump knows someone other than ‘the governor,’ you just know that she’s a threat to him. Let’s make her PM.
Did someone fart? Oh no it’s just the asshole talking.
Stupid misogynist President-elect using opportunity to dunk on women he doesn’t know, more at 7.
